Twenty three black columnists discuss their role in American
journalism. The diversity of their voices is exhibited in a
collection of their columns at the end of 2005 through the
first half of 2006. There are topics that speak to every
reader. Engage, enjoy and continue to follow these writers
who publish weekly or several days a week in newspapers and
other media. William Monroe Trotter [1872-1934] was perhaps
the rudest African-American journalist this nation has
produced. The first African-American Phi Beta Kappa graduate
of Harvard, Trotter was uncompromising. He attacked both
racists and black accommodationists as editor of the Boston
Guardian newspaper in the early 1900s. Trotter's legacy of
lone wolf protest inspired 18 African-American columnists in
1992 to establish the Trotter Group.
